Summer Yeshiva

The summer yeshiva program operates during summer months as a framework for Temimim studying at Tomchei Temimim Cincinnati and Yeshiva Ketana age Temimim in general. The summer yeshiva operates as part of Camp Chayalei Hamelech under the direction of Rabbi Yaakov Spritzer in Lackawaxen, Pennsylvania.

The summer yeshiva was first established in summer 5767 (2007) and has been growing year by year, both in quantity and quality, physically and spiritually.

During the day, Temimim participate and study in regular learning sedarim until Mincha. Afterward, they engage in various sports games and enjoyable outdoor activities, and in the evening, there is a regular seder Chassidus. Students also occasionally go on trips to various parks and attractions.

In 5775 (2015), the yeshiva administration changed the summer yeshiva format, and among other changes, it moved from the Chayalei Hamelech campus. The summer yeshiva is managed by Rabbi Shmuel Yosef Granovetter (spiritual director) and Rabbi Chaim Mordechai Isaac Kaplan (physical director).
